Re: 77 vector
I like it! Let's see that dash. I am looking for some ideas on my vulture.

Re: 77 vector
Hey, love the vector. I've got a 1983 vector and I see your fuel cell is upfront. I am tearing mine down for paint and interior this winter and was wondering what kind of difference that made. Easier to drive, cut out the porpoise did it slow you down any?
